Initial Applications

1. The application submitted is outdated (i.e. did not use the current version on the Bureau’s website or referenced on the website).

2. The application is incomplete (i.e. required information is missing or the application is not signed).

3. The name on the application form does not match the name entered by the Live Scan Operator. For example using “Don” and “Donald” or hyphenated and unhyphenated names. TIP: Use the same name on your application that is on your Driver’s License.

4. The personal identifier information (social security number, individual tax identification number, or date of birth) listed on the application does not match the personal identifier information entered by the Live Scan Operator.

5. The live scan form used does not match the application type (i.e. using a “proprietary private security officer” live scan form instead of a “security guard” live scan form when applying for a security guard registration).

8. Delays in DOJ and FBI fingerprint responses. The Bureau has no control over the time it takes for the DOJ and FBI to provide their responses to the Bureau.

9. Criminal history information received on an applicant from DOJ and/or FBI requires Bureau staff to review and assess the information in its totality to determine the applicant’s fitness for licensure.
